“Descartes, of course, the French philosopher said: "I think therefore I am". If he had waited a little bit longer before saying anything, he could have come to the point of cessation of thinking and then he could have made the more profound statement: "I am conscious therefore I am". Thinking is only an expression of consciousness: a surface expression of consciousness.” — Eckhart Tolle
